Some shots of the drawer organizing we've done. After some research online, it seemed there was nothing off the shelf that would fit our specific drawer sizes. Therefore, we ordered one organizer from Rev-A-Shelf.com and customized it to fit our needs. After customizing the one we bought, I decided it was easier just to build the rest from start to finish. I built the knife organizer after looking at various commercially available designs. We ordered spice jars in a size that would stand in the drawer and a grid keeps them from sliding around when the drawer moves.
We decided to rebuild the fireplace mantle with a more traditional/period appropriate style and get rid of all the brass that was on the old fireplace. All that's left is to fix the baseboard around the mantle and the kitchen/great room is done.
